Oculus Go is just Gear VR on steroids and not true VR without positional tracking. That’s said it might surely help with mass adoption, which always is a good thing. Also fits quite well after the Ready Player One craze.

the new Oculus prototype they showed today seems much more interesting and exciting.

Still buying it for its media potential and its ease of use and comfort. It's quite the snazzy little device. Can't wait to sit back in bed when I'm fucked over tired and be able to watch netflix in 5.1 virtual surround sound or when I'm out and about. I can see potential in this thing, not the games of course but the media potential is enough to warrent 150 for me, in fact I might even jump on the 200 price if detroit doesn't live up to my expectations. 

I can see a lot of people getting into VR because of devices like this. The new oculus and other high end VR suffer the same problem,  a price barrier for the average consumer.

I have an Oculus Rift, and I've dabbled with the Virtual Theater, but I much prefer to watch movies either in an actual theater or on my 55" tv.  I don't think wearing a headset will ever replace that for me.  The gaming applications are very cool though.
